ACTIVITY
UpdatedUSPS removed 'decide who receives a ballot' from the delivery checklist.
Post Office knows where everybody lives, same Catalog THIRTY YEARS after you move! Tremendous Persistence. Ask about Ballots, suddenly the Delivery people teach ME the Constitution...
IT archived the launch checklist under Court-dependent features.
Executive Office asked to keep the launch announcement anyway.
Deliver the ENVELOPE, how hard??
Operations returned to its original assignment: take the envelope to the address.
Very Pro-Mail when it's MY Mail. Beautiful Letters I get, beautiful Handwriting, some of it!
PUBLIC RECORD
On September 17, Postmaster General David Steiner told AP that work had stopped on the computer system central to Trump’s mail-voting restrictions following the Supreme Court’s action. USPS says it will not enforce those new rules in the 2026 federal election.
